Hi All,
1. What is the current recommended method for upgrading firmware for HBAs?
2. Is there a mechanism wherein the firmware binary can be provided as a
separate file, which is then made accessible to the corresponding device
driver during device initialization?
3. Is
It appears that the pause() function cannot be used in driver functions which
are invoked early in the boot process. Is there is a kernel api which a device
driver can use to determine whether to use pause() or DELAY(), for delays which
are say greater than 10hz - may be even 1 hz ?
Cheers,

The current firmware(9) mechanism might work for you. The QLogic FC/SCSI
cards in FreeBSD use that for loading firmware images to download to the
cards, albeit to just load and reset, to update flash. This allows the
drivers themselves to request updates.
Note that the root filesystem has

I have installed 9.0 bata2 from cd and the net. In both cases after the
completion of the install and rebooting, the bsdinstall scripts still
remain on the new installed system. If I interpret the code logic
correctly, bsdinstall can ONLY be used for an original install. It's not
